This map shows at glance which countries currently have reporting obligations in place for employers in relation to what men and women are paid in their organisations.
The gender pay gap is the difference between the average gross hourly earnings of male and female paid employees, expressed as a percentage of the average gross hourly earnings of male employees.
In this map, we explore the different frameworks adopted by countries across the globe.

For further information on the current status of implementation of this directive across the EU member states, please see our dedicated Pay Transparency Directive map.
